Starmer put on a decent show of wanting to cut immigration. But we all know he's an open borders fanatic, and his actual actions – tax cuts for Indians, EU youth mobility – belie his true intentions, says Joe Baron.
According to David Betz, Professor of War in the Modern World at King's College London, Britain may be on the verge of civil war. Sound implausible? Joe Baron doesn't think so.
Starmer has pledged to increase the UK’s defence spending, with plans to boost military personnel. But is it of any use when no one wants to fight? Joe Baron investigates the recruitment crisis facing the Armed Forces.
Given the threat of Islamist terrorism, it's irresponsible to 'decolonise' and 'diversify' our National Curriculum. This woke makeover will mean teaching children most susceptible to radicalisation to hate their country.
Teacher Joe Baron says it's no surprise 18 to 24 year-olds are so unpatriotic. They've been taught by woke history teachers to hate their own country.
The one source of comfort for Joe Baron going into 2024, with everything else looking so doomy and gloomy, was the prospect of Arsenal winning the league. But he's beginning to doubt that even that will happen.

by Joe Baron Annus horribilis just doesn’t cut it.

The most striking thing about this whole affair, though, has been the utter failure of our Alpha caste to navigate the ship of state through these tempestuous seas. Incalculable levels of ineptitude have combined with both arrogance and aloofness to produce an epoch-ending conflation of crises that has exposed the egregious shortcomings of our governing class and, just as importantly, the misconceptions of a credulous public. The mask has finally slipped and the veneer of superiority has been stripped away. The emperors really do have no clothes. Oxbridge and Eton, we now know. Apart from churning out an interminable, never-ending configuration of smug, arrogant, born-to-rule Malfoys with the means and connections to trample over their opponents and further their own interests, you have nothing else to offer. You certainly don’t add any value to the rest of society. Thanks to you, and our most influential institutions – institutions saturated with your alumni and the alumni of our other elite...
